Wrapped And Ready To Give



 An easy way to package decorated cookies is to use food safe cellophane bags with an adhesive strip for sealing. Look for them at packaging supply stores.

An inexpensive way to make tags is to use a large paper punch. I bought my oval fluted punch at a craft store for $16. That might sound like a lot but it's a one time investment. Tags at the craft store are not cheap and a bonus of making them yourself is that you get to choose the paper and be creative. For the "Happy Easter" tags, I used kraft cardstock paper.

A simple cotton grosgrain ribbon finishes the look. Using a hole punch, make a hole in the cellophane bag and tag. Thread and tie the ribbon and the packaged cookies are ready to give.
